Oogie Boogie's Song

Well, well, well, what have we here?

Sandy Claws, huh?

Ooh, I'm really scared

So you're the one everybody's talking about

You're joking, you're joking

I can't believe my eyes

You're joking me, you've gotta be

This can't be the right guy

He's ancient, he's ugly

I don't know which is worse

I might just split a seam now

If I don't die laughing first

Well, Mr. Oogie Boogie says

There's trouble close at hand

You'd better pay attention now

'Cause I'm the Boogie Man

And if you aren't shaking

Then there's something very wrong

'Cause this may be the last time

Now that you hear the Boogie Song

Ooh (Whoa)

Ooh (Whoa)

Whoa (Whoa)

I'm the Oogie Boogie Man

Well, if I'm feeling antsy

And there's nothing much to do

I might just cook a special batch

Of snake and spider stew

And don't you know the one thing

That would make it work so nice?

A roly-poly Santa Claus to add a little spice

Whoa, yeah (Whoa)

Whoa (Whoa)

Oh, yeah (Whoa)

I'm the Oogie Boogie Man

Release me now, or you must face

The dire consequences

The children are expecting me

So please, come to your senses

You're joking, you're joking

I can't believe my ears

Will someone shut this fella up?

I'm drowning in my tears

It's funny, I'm laughing

You really are too much

And now, with your permission

I'm going to do my stuff

What are you going to do?

I'm gonna do the best I can

Oh, the sound of rolling dice

To me, is music in the air

'Cause I'm a gambling Boogie Man

And no, I don't play fair

It's much more fun, I must confess

When lives are on the line

Not mine, of course, but yours, old boy

Now that would be just fine

Release me fast, or you will have to

Answer for this heinous act

Oh, brother, you're something

You put me in a spin

You aren't comprehending

The position that you're in

It's hopeless, you're finished

You haven't got a prayer

'Cause I'm Mr. Oogie Boogie

And you ain't going nowhere
